No, of course not, if your bootloader is overwritten, I don't see to whom you should pass the command "linux install_bootloader" :-). Hum, you're not reading MandrakeForum boyz, this is baaad. http://www.mandrakeforum.com/print.php?sid=1371 1- insert your Installation CD (or map this instruction to whatever install method you want) 2- type in F1 then "rescue" and Enter 3- when the boot is finished you're now (now == Cooker >= Nov-2001) greated by a menu, proposing a list of actions 4- select "Re-install Boot Loader" 5- program will - try to guess your mountpoints (for example, if you run with a / on Raid or Loopback, just plain forget it), then will mount them - perform a set of basic sanity checks (check that /sbin/lilo is executalbe, /etc/lilo.conf is readable, /etc/mandrake-release exists and contain "Mandrake") - ask for a confirmation to reinstall boot loader coming from the distro-version reported by /etc/mandrake-release 6- reboot -- Guillaume Cottenceau - http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~gc/
